Stopped by on Pi day. March 14. They were having a sale on pies, of course. But we were here for…read moresupplements, which you would be surprised to know - this location has really good prices on many items that other natural or organic stores have as well, but the co-op is competitive on the price point. You might also find other alternatives for the same supplement and very, very very knowledgeable staff to answer your questions. A good treat today was a cheese sample. That was very delicious. In the month of March, they are having a March madness cheese bracket also go check it out. We just started coming to this location recently and was surprised to see a semi-secret passageway to Temple coffee look for the alley and the aardvark.

This market is pretty nice inside. The fried chicken at the…read morehot deli counter... when fresh is very good. Homelessness everywhere but they do have a few security guards keeping an eye on things. The parking lot is small and tight so be patient. The baked goods / pastries are also pretty good at this location. Employees were all nice. Ambiance is clean and bright throughout.

Today was our big outing to Safeway. We came to this particular Safeway because they have the DMV…read morekiosks. We needed to renew our registration. It's that time of year again. Going to the DMV is such a hassle and you can no longer get a number and talk to an agent to renew your registration on site. They will direct you to one of there kiosks on site for you to do it. So if you aren't a kiosk lover you're out of luck. You can also renew by paper, just tear off the bottom of the paper and mail it in with your check, but that takes time. Using this Safeway Kiosk is instant, you give them your credit or debit card and you're in and out in no time. You don't even need the paper they sent you to renew your registration on site. I have to say there is something glitchy with the yelp app. I took around 10 pictures today and only 3 pictures stuck. Too bad, they were a lot of great pics. I don't know what's happening. The same thing happened with my Sees's Post only 2 of the 5 pictures stuck. Just imagine lots more pictures. Such as the one of this year's superbowl napkins. They are selling them on an end cap at Safeway. The bad about the trip is the digital coupons that you clip on your phone didn't right up right at the register and we had to go to customer service for a price adjustment. For some reason my husband can clip all the coupons on his phone , but his phone number isn't linking to his account. He needs to scan the QR code from his card on this phone by the sales associate when he checks out. What a pain. When he has a chance he'll give them a ring and see if they can fix it. The customer service guy couldn't help us. He's the one that said give the checker the QR code to scan. This is making shopping at Safeway difficult and not efficient. We did get a lot of good deals or we think we got a lot of good deals. Pete's coffee was $7.99 a bag. Eggs were $1.99 a dozen. Chicken broth was on sale for 50% off in the clearance section and we grabbed 4. Then we went to the regularly section and it was on sale for only 99 cents so we put the clearance ones back on the rack and took the 99 cent ones. The bathrooms are locked up, you need a code to get in. I was lucky that the person in-front of me had the code. The bathrooms aren't spectacular. They are decent. They didn't smell bad and appeared clean. Clearance Rack- There are 2 racks out side the restrooms of clearance items. There appeared to be lots of good deals. As you heard above we though we were getting a good deal, but we weren't so know your prices before you fall for the 50% off sticker deal.

I've become a regular at Oto's. I love the variety of items they offer from fresh produce to shelf…read morestable items, candy, hot food, and even their poke at the fish counter. I regularly stop in to pick up treats, drinks, produce like mushrooms and okra, and their poke and hot meal options. I also like their home goods sections with so many cool ramen bowls, sauce containers, and utensils. I'm always excited when I stop in when it's slower because I can take my time browsing. Whenever this happens I end up leaving with a lot more items. I appreciate that they carry a wide variety of items including some ingredients and items that are hard to find in the US and even at other Asian grocery stores. I've stopped into many different stores and I feel like Oto's has variety and quality at a great price. They do have their own parking, but be careful because it can be pretty tight and there's usually a good amount of cars coming in and out.

But none of those reasons are the real reason I truly love Oto's,let me tell you what I really love.....Late last year I decided I was going to learn how to make my favorite food in the world and that is sushi.I went ham,I got the knives I got the kits,I got the rice maker,I got all the seasonings but what I didn't have was a spot to pick up the highest level of fish that was needed to really make homemade sushi pop and that is where Oto's came in to save the day. Their daily "sushi-grade" tuna and salmon that they sell in the back of the store is so next level-even a novice like myself cannot mess up a homemade sushi meal.They have so much to offer at Oto's,all the different levels of salmon and tuna,depending on your budget but all of it is amazing. I will forever be indebted to Oto's for helping me raise my sushi game at home and making my wife think that I'm just the best sushi maker-when it was always just the high quality fish offered at Oto's that did the work-Thank You Oto's for that. In closing-if you ever find yourself in the Land Park area and want to see what all the hype is about at this incredible spot or maybe you just want to try your hand at some home sushi making,be sure to stop by Oto's Marketplace-it truly is a gem amongst gems. PS....Parking sucks here-no way around that one unless u get lucky or have a handicap placard-don't like the parking.

Adj: Small but Mighty little Grocery Outlet…read more Still a good one, an oldie but a goodie. We've been coming here for over a decade, and it's still a consistently good GO. For a more pricey part of town since it's in midtown, just on the edge of downtown really, this GO has stayed reasonable in all it offers. It's located at 1700 Capitol Ave not far from the east side of Capitol Park a few blocks from the Capitol Rose Garden. This GO is right across 17th St from the East End Complex buildings with offices for the CA Dept of Public Health and CA Dept of Health Care Services. Out front there were still some herbs and spring seasonal plants on sale, although only 1 rack of them left, since it's already kind of late in the planting season. This is a smaller store, given how expensive real estate is in downtown, but the owners have really packed it all in. Every section has most everything other bigger Grocery Outlet stores carry, except maybe not as many of any given item, but overall, I see that most things I'm looking for and buy regularly at my neighborhood GO is still available here. You've got your fruits, veggies, meats, cheeses, dairy (milk and yogurt), sundries, pantry staples like cans and dry pasta, seasoning (sauces and spices), freezer items (frozen veg, meats and heat-and-eat meals), and beers & wines all available here with great variety. As you enter the store there's a super convenient grab-n-go deli cold case section for quick ready-to-eat lunches which is super helpful for office workers who might be just looking to get something very quickly for lunch without breaking the bank. You can get a salad kit, a ready-made sandwich, pre-cut fruits, some cheeses, or a deli salad in this section. There's also a small floral section right near here so if you were looking for a gift to give to a coworker/boss/friend/your significant other, you can very easily and quickly find a nice potted plant or a small bouquet and be on your way. It's definitely not a full-service floral dept, but there's a good assortment of plants and flowers to choose from and some of were even tropical plants that looked pretty unique! Next there's the health & beauty section next, and it's pretty comprehensive. Next is the produce section and it's smaller than a suburban GO, but it's still got a little bit of most kinds of veggies and fruits you'd be looking for, and if you're ok with a different brand of salad than your go-to brand, you'd definitely find some here, so the key is flexibility while shopping at GO. Then there's the meat dept next to the produce section, it is smaller, but still a good sized display case filled with meats of all kinds, and next to that are the dairy cold cases where I saw some pretty nice brands of creamers such as Califia coconut creamer and Nutpods creamer, both priced so much lower than regular grocery stores, I'll add pics of those. My fav section is the snacks area. I found some snacks here that have been out of stock at 2 other GO's I visited looking for them, so I stocked up and bought a bunch so I won't run out! So thankful that they had them in stock! The rest of the store is laid out and stocked with pretty much the same items as other bigger GO's. You've got your dairy, frozen, pantry staples, and wine sections in addition to the other departments I already mentioned, and everything looked pretty well organized and quite easy to find. One thing is that the aisles here are closer together probably so they can save space and maximize their shelves to provide as much wonderful grocery items to their customers as they can. Check out was quite easy and the cashier was friendly and quick. Thank you Midtown GO and we hope you will keep on keeping us well-fed at affordable prices. I'll definitely be back to restock when I run low on my essentials and to look for new and exciting items at my favorite "bargain market"!

This grocery outlet, or GO as my wife and I like to call these stores, is centrally located where…read morewe can get to when we're downtown for work meetings or social events. Sometime you just want to hurriedly grab some ready-to-heat-and-eat meals or some chips, drinks, and other snacks, and GO provides these and more conveniently without having to go to a regular supermarket that sometimes just feels big and overwhelming, plus GO often have good deals without having to look for the sales. A no-brainer in my book. So I've come here several times and it used to be really nice and it's still ok, but due to the sad and kind of dire homelessness problem downtown, there's quite a lot of the unhoused folks hanging out in front or around the store, and sometimes they aren't in a good space mentally, so be aware of that when you come by to shop. But generally, the store has done a lot to keep shoppers safe and the store is clean inside although the outside might be more grungy on the sidewalks and parking lot. I've found some really good deals here, some even phenomenal ones, haha.. I always look at the meat section for deals first, and then dairy, cheeses, yogurts, eggs, chips and candies types snacks next, and I don't really look at produce or pantry foods, but the wife would take care of those. I found these amazing sausages for $1.99 recently. What the heck?! I definitely got me a few packs. They've got seasonal items here too, right now it's a lot of Easter candies, cookies, cereal, and even stuff animals and toys. There's also seasonal spring plants, although it's more hit/miss whether they have them here vs. GO's in residential neighborhoods where the vegetable starts are always available in March/April.

I will say that "Nugget Markets" is one of the top leading grocery store chains in the greater…read moreSacramento area. Headquartered in Davis, CA dating back to 1926, they have been more of an upscale supermarket experience by offering top-notch customer service while being a forefront to the community. This includes empowering future generations, fortifying the neighborhoods, cultivating environmental change, and inspiring philanthropy. The location I am focusing on is in the Greenhaven-Pocket area. Located in a fairly sizable outdoor strip mall, this Nugget is located directly on Florin Rd and tucked in between Greenhaven Dr and the CA I-5 highway. As for this location, they have been in operation since around 2005 and been a staple for folks that reside in this area. Since I used to work only a 1/2 mile from this store (for about 3 years), I've frequented it on my lunch break as well as before and after work. The parking situation is shared with several other smaller brick-and-mortar businesses including a Starbucks, Subway, L&L Hawaiian BBQ, and much more. The storefront entrance is inviting and welcoming as the entire layout is accommodating while being easy to navigate for customers. I will say that the selection at Nugget is quite possibly the best I have seen in any local grocery store. Here you will find a vast array of produce (regular/organic fruits and veggies), meat/poultry, dairy, frozen foods, and a very impressive variety of beer and wine. However, their deli section which includes all varieties of meats, cheeses, and freshly baked breads is a real winner in my book. The hot and cold foods to go showcase freshly made soups, salads, olives, cold cuts, and meals that you can heat up on your stove or on your BBQ grill. I also wanted to emphasize that the sandwiches here are some of the best I have tried, better than Raley's/Bel Air and much better than what you'd order at a Safeway or Save Mart (all staple supermarkets in Northern California). In addition to the sandwiches, they also offer coffee/tea, fresh juices, açai and Pitaya bowls, smoothies, and much more. I will say that since Nuggets focuses on quality control, much of their food items are significantly higher than the competition. However, just about everything I've purchased here (whether it is pasta, a bottle of wine, or a loaf of bread) has been above average. All in all, the Florin-Greenhaven "Nugget Markets" earn a 4 out of 5 stars from me. Some of the key staple items are quite expensive and don't correlate with my budget. However, the customer service here is top notch while the cleanliness of the store is very well kept. I also wanted to add that the checkout lanes were run very efficiently while making sure every customer is well taken care of. And considering they are open for business 7 days a week from 6am-9pm, you can be assured that they will have what you're looking for.

I come here specifically for that sandwich all the time, and it's always loaded with meat. Honestly, it felt like he was too lazy to open new packs. He didn't even add mustard, salt, or pepper. Just a smear of mayo, a tiny sprinkle of veggies, and called it good. Then he proceeds to hand me a poorly wrapped sandwich. Just holding it I could tell it was not made how it's supposed to. If I wanted a sad, half-made Subway sandwich, I wouldn't have come here.

It's big, very spacious, and 2-story. There's seating with comfortable sofa and chairs & tables upstairs for enjoying anything you buy from the deli like from the sandwich counter or bakery and they even have a microwave. The store has everything you would expect in a regular Raleys but probably more selection just because the store is so big. I like Raleys produce which is always fresh and often local. The staff are usually friendly and efficient. All in all, Raleys is a solid store.
